Normal reference values of left ventricular volumetric parameters in healthy adults-real-life single-center experience from the three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiographic MAGYAR-Healthy Study

| Tartalmi kivonat: | The left ventricle (LV) is the pump of the peripheral circulation, therefore its non-invasive accurate volumetric and functional assessment is essential. Three-dimensional (3D) speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is a new tool with capability of quantification of LV volumes and ejection fraction (EF). In the present study, age- and gender-dependency of 3DSTE-derived LV volumetric parameters were aimed to be quantified in healthy adults.The present study involved 298 healthy adults. Data acquisition took place over a 6 year period (2011-2017), during which 123 adults had to be excluded due to inferior image quality. The study population was further divided into 4 groups based on age decades. In every case, a complete two-dimensional echocardiography was performed followed by 3DSTE examination.No significant differences were detected between the different age groups regarding 3D end-diastolic volume (EDV) and 3D end-systolic volume (ESV) and their body surface area (BSA)-indexed counterpart. 3DEF differed significantly between the 30-39-year-old males and 40-49-year-old males (P=0.04). Between the youngest and oldest patient group, only 3D left ventricular mass (LVM) was significantly different (P=0.02). The 18-29-year-old females had a significantly different 3DLVM (P<0.001) compared to that of the 50+ year-old females. Between the 40-49-year-old and 50+ year-old females 3DLVM (P=0.02) and BSA-indexed 3DLVM (P=0.05) proved to be significantly different.3DSTE seems to be a reasonably viable tool for the quantification of LV volumetric parameters. |
